About the Ibis Oso TR
Now completely re-designed, the brand new Ibis Oso overhauls everything from the suspension design to geometry and motor system. As with the their recent well regarded mountain bikes, the new Oso runs on the excellent DW 4 linkage which produces a great balance of plushness, support and bottom out resistance. A 600W internal battery keeps weight low and centred in the frame for intuitive handling while compatibility with the Bosch Powermore extender allows a 250W booster to be added for the biggest days out. Drive comes from the Bosch Gen 5 CX motor, which has become one of our absolute favourites on the market; its reliability is unmatched and at a current max output of 100Nm torque and 750 watts it is powerful enough for almost everyone.
Modular dropouts allow you to run either a 27.5 or 29' rear wheel as well as switching between longer or shorter chain stays so no matter what kind of bike you like, the Oso can be adapted to suit. That's already a lot of adjustment but there is even more available; by swapping clevis, shock and fork the bike can be adapted to either 'HD' 180mm/165mm or 'R' 140/130mm configurations making it incredibly future proof.
This middle version, the TR, is the all rounder in the line with 160mm of fork travel paired to a 150mm rear end, designed to perform across a massive range of trails and terrain. When it comes to the build, a well chosen parts kit puts the money where most riders would want it. A full RockShox suspension package and SRAM Maven brakes give excellent braking and suspension performance, and the Eagle 90 drivetrain provides simple mechanical functionality. There's coil compatibility available and at not much over 22kg it's very much at the lighter end of harder hitting full power bikes.
Default wheel size varies by frame size: Small to XM bikes come set up with MX wheels and L-XL are full 29'.
